    I only take one vit now - a strong multi from Costco and a B12 and my 3 month blood tests came back with everything in normal range (actually my B12 was high but still ok). I'll see how it does with my 6mo tests, but I'm feeling great.



    Lifetime rules
    Weigh myself daily - to keep thescale from going back up!!
    Use food scale
    Use smaller dishes

    BMI: 30.8 Weight: 185 - 90 days Post-Op 02/16/2013
    BMI: 28.0 Weight: 168 - 6 months Post-Op 5/17/2013
    BMI: 25.2 Weight: 156 - 11 months Post-Op 10/17/2013

    If you have trouble remembering, get one of those weekly boxes and put it on your alarm clock, toothbrush or by the TV remote, or wherever you'll see it every day, morning and night. I keep mine in the cupboard with the plates and coffee mugs. ON the mugs! I remember to take mine morning and night.

    Give it a shot!
